Reading vs Burnley Match Thread

At least he got a cheer from our away following, unlike on here where people keep repeating the same dull 'jokes'.

I notice all the reading coaching staff are wearing fake Scott Parker coats.

Genuinely hope Tresor has a good cameo, but let’s just remember how long ago he last played a football match. It can’t be far off a year.

jedi_master · Post by **jedi_master** » Sat Jan 11, 2025 4:48 pm

Will be very interesting/telling whether Tresor shows up in league squads now. If not, one can only summise that he is uninvolved due to a large fee needing to be paid to his club if he plays another league game?

Who’s the female presenter on final score? Does she have a Burnley connection?

Nice trap by Tresor for his first touch.

It could be worse, Oxford were already 3-1 down when they had their man sent off!

Tressor looks pretty good!

To be fair, we're actually seeing some of this famed passing Tresor is apparently capable of so far...

Too many snide comments for me re Trésor.

I'll tell you what that academy lad that's come on at RM looks silky af

Tresor would be comfortably our best winger if he wanted to be

Stonehouse · Post by **Stonehouse** » Sat Jan 11, 2025 4:51 pm

He’s playing half decent

HahaYeah · Post by **HahaYeah** » Sat Jan 11, 2025 4:52 pm

Nice cross by Tresor.

Yep you can see the technical ability, just whether his heads there or not

You see enough in 5 min here to know what an asset the bloke would be. Let us pray this is a line under the ridiculous saga.

At least he’s going to have to play another 30 mins

Absolutely this.

We need him, we are desperate for creative players that can unlock a stubborn defense.

Enjoyable cup tie. Some promising performances from squad players, especially the two U21 players in the middle

The Ultras are up in here again I see. "You can't say that" "I'm offended" "only positive vibes please".

We should be through. Hladky’s mistake means another 30 mins in the legs.

Barnes and Jay aren’t championship level. Foster has to start ahead of them

Really frustrating that.

No way were Reading getting back into that without us gifting them one.

Tresor fantastic for someone who hasn’t played in 364 days.

Yes, yes, I know.

gandhisflipflop · Post by **gandhisflipflop** » Sat Jan 11, 2025 4:55 pm

Can’t be a coincidence that within a week or two of Barnes return, he’s back playing

Laurent for Barnes and push Jay forward might work .

On Hldaky this extra time, he can't be knocking on SPs office door anytime soon asking for minutes after that. Basic

They asked what was the first what was the first wembley final she remembered - straight away - Sherpa Van trophy v wolves - she would have been 7 at the time and was absolutely obsessed with football back then

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Jan 11, 2025 4:58 pm

These lads needed minutes so all good, the two young lads have done incredibly well. Goal for Foster, Tresor back. Winning the FA Cup isn't supposed to be easy, we will look back on this game with fondness come May

Vino blanco · Post by **Vino blanco** » Sat Jan 11, 2025 4:58 pm

So frustrating as usual. At least Foster’s performance should put him line for a place in the starting eleven.

I really fancy our chances with penalties....it's our goalie who seriously needs to redeem himself as well.
